Pangrams
a pangram is a toki where each glyph occurs at least once
a perfect pangram is when each glyph occurs exactly once; this is not possible in toki pona due to its syllable structure requiring a vowel for almost every consonant (and the language having more consonants than vowels), so this doc marks the shortest possible ones instead
some pangrams assume the final nasal (as in pan) to be the same as the n in ni; others consider them separate and are thus more useful as examples for scripts where those are written differently
final nasal = n
the minimum number of characters is 17, as each consonant except n needs a vowel after it
